UNPACKING YOUR MD 801 MEDIA TUNER

Carefully inspect all sides of the shipping carton for damage. If there are marks or
holes in the carton make note of the location in relation to the unit inside. Any
obvious dents or scuff marks should alert you to the possibility of damage. Carefully
remove the MD Wi Fi Tuner Plus from the end caps and wrapping, inspect all sides.
Pay special attention to the corresponding areas on the unit where damage was
found to the shipping carton. If damage is evident, document the type and extent of
the damage, then repack the unit and call the dealer.

KINDLY DO NOT SEND THE UNIT BACK TO THE SHIPPER UNTIL YOU HAVE BEEN
ASKED TO DO SO.

DO NOT DISCARD THE PACKING MATERIALS AND CARTONS. Should there be a
necessity to return the unit for any reason, it must arrive safely and suitably
packaged in order for our receiver to accept it from the carrier. If the unit has
incurred damage as a result of improper packaging, it is not likely that a claim for
the damage against the carrier will be successful.

Likewise, we will ship your unit back to you only in factory-approved packaging,
however, if the unit were to arrive at the factory on anything other than factory
approved packaging, we reserve the right to return the unit in factory-approved
packaging and charge the cost of the packaging to the shipper. This is the only way
we can assure you of a safe return (damage by carrier excepted).

External resources
To operate the MD 801, the following external resources are needed:

• a power source (100-240 V mains supply),

• a wired (Ethernet) or wireless (Wi-Fi) network (provided through a router) with

appropriate permissions and password if necessary (for Internet Tuner and
Network Music player modes),

• broadband Internet access (for Internet Tuner mode and Internet Software

Update),

• a music library stored on the network or on a USB mass storage device (for

Music player modes),

• an external audio source (for Aux in mode).

SETTING UP THE MD INTERNET MEDIA TUNER

1. Position the tuner away from any spot which may have extremes in

temperatures.

2. Place the tuner on a very rigid surface capable of holding 75 pounds (34 KG).

3. It is important that the tuner is not covered and it is not installed in a closed area

where there is little air circulation. Ensure at least 2” of clearance on the left and
right of the device, and 5” of clearance above the unit to allow for proper
ventilation.

4. Connect the tuner to your preamplifier or integrated amplifier using a set of

cables consistent with the caliber of your system. Select the input you chose on
your preamplifier/Integrated. Note: Be sure that the preamplifier volume is set
to zero.

5. If hardwiring your Wi Fi Tuner Plus, connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet

port, and the FM antenna cable to the RF input, on the back of the unit.

6. Unwrap the EIA AC cord and plug the EIA end into the rear socket marked

Input

. Plug the other end of the AC cord into a 120/220/230/240 volt
continuous AC power supply. Be sure that the voltage marked on the rear of the
unit is the same as the AC source that you are using.

7. Press the power button on the front panel of the unit to the ON position, . The

screen will turn on displaying the Magnum Dynalab Logo as the MD 801 is
warming up.

8. Go to the quick start page

** CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE UNIT IS SET UP FOR THE PROPER VOLTAGE **
(Check for unit’s voltage marked on rear panel) then plug the tuner’s AC power cord
into an AC power source. Be sure to use a continuous power source so as to allow
the stand-by mode feature to function properly. The tuner’s audio output is muted in
the stand-by mode.
